Holidays are precious times: an escape from the rush and scramble of everyday living, a change of pace to relax and recharge batteries, a change of scenery to delight your senses, a time to break out of the routine.Boating holidays are wonderful for all these reasons.

Theres a sense of freedom from the moment you step on board, excitement that makes you feel like a kid again. On a boat your world is the natural environment around you - theres nothing like the sight of a six or seven tiny cygnets paddling furiously to keep up with their parents, or the majestic flight of a sea eagle, to remind you you're far from the pressures of the city.

And then theres the chance to learn something new, whether its a new knot, how to use a cleat, understand a navigation mark, dock against a jetty, or master the art of sailing a large yacht.

Thats what makes the holiday special - and memorable.Together, Riviera Nautic and the Gippsland Lakes make a wonderful combination for enjoying all these things.

Our friendly team is willing to share with you their considerable knowledge and love of the lakes and boating - in the initial briefing and right through your holiday.

And we offer outstanding on-water service. You may never need this service, but the confidence in knowing that its available contributes greatly to the feeling of freedom and relaxation.
